I got 275cc saline implants in 2014 to help my tuberous breast shape. In 2019 I got a lift and reconstruction surgery to further help the shape but soon after I got capsular contracture in one breast. My implants are too big IMO and have caused me so many issues I just want them out. However, I’m worried they will look tuberous without them despite the recent surgery. I could get small implants like 150-200cc but I’m afraid I’ll just have issues again. :/

Answer: What can I expect from explant When the implants are removed your tissues will shrink back to a degree. As you have had some surgery to address the tuberous nature of the breasts, you may retain some of that improvement. If you do not wish to add implants you can consider a lift to help with the shape.

Answer: Implant removal Dear hbarnett13, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. You can remove implant and wait to see the final results. If you are not satisfied with the results after removal smaller implants or fat transfer can be an option. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
